The intent is to have subsequent slash sheets complement each other as more functions and features are included.

This document applies to a plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) which is equipped with an onboard inverter and communicates using IEEE 2030.5-2018. It is a supplement to the SEP2 standard, which supports the use cases defined by SAE J2836/3. It provides guidance for the use of the SEP2 distributed energy resource function set with a PEV. It also provides guidance for the use of the SEP2 flow reservation function set, when used for discharging. It is not intended to be a comprehensive guide to the use of SEP2 in a PEV. Note that in this document, SEP2 is used interchangeably with IEEE 2030.5-2018.

The SAE J2954 standard establishes an industry-wide specification that defines acceptable criteria for Light Duty EVs and SAE RP J2954/2 establishes the same for Heavy Duty. SAE RP SAE J2954. SAE RP J2954/3 establishes interoperability, electromagnetic compatibility, EMF, minimum performance, safety, and testing for dynamic wireless power transfer (D-WPT) of both light and heavy duty plug-in electric vehicles. The specification defines various charging levels that are based on the levels defined for SAE J1772 conductive AC charge levels as SAE J2954/1 & SAE J2954/2 with some variations. A standard for WPT based on these charge levels enables selection of a charging rate based on vehicle requirements, thus allowing for better vehicle packaging and ease of customer use. SAE J2954/3 addresses unidirectional charging, from grid to vehicle; bidirectional energy transfer may be evaluated for a future standard.
